What’s your favorite Pro Series alley that you have bowled at and why?
I mean, Metro is always there because it’s my home away from home and where I basically grew up, but if I had to say another, I really like Lucky [Strike] also.  I’ve gotten used to those lanes because I bowl for them, and also because I like the old feeling to it.

What’s your favorite Pro Series format and why?
I do like the random draw doubles because it is the most appealing to me, but you can also get paired up with some big name bowlers and just have a ton of fun.

Most memorable Pro Series moment?
Oh boy. I think the first doubles [knockout] last year had a great final match between [Peter] Flynn/Cookie [Richards] and [Bobby] Whitcomb/ [Craig] Holbrook. I thought it was a great back and forth match and it came down to the last box. When Peter almost had that double to take the event, that was such a crazy moment because that would have been such an epic moment/win.

Best match you’ve been involved in outside the Pro Series?
I have a couple favorite moments.  My first one is when I was bowling the Thursday night mixed league with Ryan Lehr, Geoff Dunn, Steve Lach, and Mike Kane. Now, the league is a handicapped league, and we didn’t have much because our averages were fairly high. For scratch one night, we hit a 1914 for a triple, but for one string we hit a 686. The amazing thing about that was we were missing Steve and took his 118 average for three games. I did nothing that game, but Geoff, Mike and Ryan hit like a 460 total for them.  Doing something like that was pretty awesome, that was the highest team string I’ve ever been a part of.

My second favorite is actually something that I didn’t do. When I threw my 192 string against Metro [I] back in February [2012], I was bowling against Mark Gregory. Now, you would think that throwing that string would be my favorite, but it isn’t. The thing that I really love about that was watching Mark come back and beat me total. He beat me 444 to 440, and it was a pretty gross 444 because he had two 140’s and a 150. That’s some insane consistency right there. If that isn’t awesome enough to watch, it was even more awesome because he beat a guy that dropped a 192 on him.  Something like that is inspiration to a young bowler like me. If that doesn’t say “no matter what, never give up”, then I really don’t know what does because that was something else to watch.
